A Nerd’s Guide to Japan Part 4 – Tokyo Game Show

Michael founded GeeklyInc with Tim Lanning way back in 2013 when they realized they had two podcasts and needed a place to stick them. Since then, Geekly has grown and taken off in ways Michael could have never imagined.

Konnichi wa! This is the fourth installment of Geekly’s nerdy coverage of Japanese culture by Michael DiMauro and Carly Shields. After falling in love with the country during a visit in September, 2017, we noticed a lot of other people were contacting us about our experience. In an attempt to help out others on their first trip to Nihon, we’ve put together a 5-part audio series that covers a number of topics from food to nerd attractions.

In the fourth installment, we cover our reason for going to Japan in the first place: Tokyo Game Show! Hundreds of thousands of video gamers go to TGS every year, and we will share our experiences. *Please note: These are our own personal experiences and don’t reflect that of Geekly. We’re just two Japan-loving nerds that want to help others find the fun on their trips!

We’ll be back with part 5 next time where we talk about our favorite nerd adventures!
